Reverent Prayer

Tonight at the dinner table, Chris called on McKay to pray. It went something like this: "Dear Heavenly Father, Thank you for the food. Thank you for mommy, daddy, Buddy, Deacon." Then she lets out quite possibly the loudest burp of her life. Pausing only long enough to let the burp escape, "Thank you for my doll, Dora. Thank you that we get to go to Nana and Papa's condo. I mean Idaho Falls house on....(whispering) What day are we going there?"
To which Chris whispers back, "Tuesday."
"Tuesday."
At this point Parker whispers, "Next Tuesday."
Loudly, "I already said Tuesday, Buddy."
Parker, "You didn't say next Tuesday."
Louder, "I did too, say Tuesday!"
Chris prompting, "In the name..."
McKay, "In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
